The artstyle is absolutely stunning and certainly steals the show, and I loved the atmosphere throughout this book - really perfect for the story and the art。 However, the story itself was not as compelling, it didn't feel as though it was really going anywhere and the ending just kind of happened, and didn't feel like the curtain had fallen。 The artstyle is absolutely stunning and certainly steals the show, and I loved the atmosphere throughout this book - really perfect for the story and the art。 However, the story itself was not as compelling, it didn't feel as though it was really going anywhere and the ending just kind of happened, and didn't feel like the curtain had fallen。 。。。more

Night Cry is a young adult graphic novel written and illustrated by Borja Gonzalez。 When it comes to rituals, Teresa, who runs a bookstore specializing in magic and the occult, knows her fair share。 But when she manages to summon Laura, an anime-loving demon, the ritual goes awry: Laura is there to grant her any wish, but Teresa doesn’t know what to ask for。 And so the two are stuck with each other… Thus begins a strange cohabitation, while Laura decides to investigate a series of unexplained di Night Cry is a young adult graphic novel written and illustrated by Borja Gonzalez。 When it comes to rituals, Teresa, who runs a bookstore specializing in magic and the occult, knows her fair share。 But when she manages to summon Laura, an anime-loving demon, the ritual goes awry: Laura is there to grant her any wish, but Teresa doesn’t know what to ask for。 And so the two are stuck with each other… Thus begins a strange cohabitation, while Laura decides to investigate a series of unexplained disappearances in town。 Through the author’s captivating artwork and spirited dialogue, discover an offbeat and magical world close to our own, alternating between warmth and sweet melancholy。Night Cry is a unique graphic novel。 I liked the art style, I thought the use of color and the way the characters were drawn without facial features gave the book a very eerie vibe- and with the witch, ghost, and demon mentions that was on point。 honestly the visuals were my favorite part of the story。 There were little details and suggestions on every page that readers could interpret in many ways, coloring the storytelling。 I liked the majority of the story, but have to admit that there were more than a few moments when I was really confused, and the story and my guesses about what was really going on and where the story might end up were disconnected。 And, frankly the ending left me a bit baffled。 I did enjoy the friendship development, and though I often hated the way Teresa treated Matilda, I thought some of it made sense for the personalities and twists that might have popped up in the story。 Night Cry is an atmospheric and beautifully drawn graphic novel that is very much open to interpretation。 。。。more

Night Cry by Borja González。Teresa runs a bookstore specializing in magic and the occult。 One night she summons Laura, an anime-loving demon。 Laura is there to grant her any wish, but Teresa doesn't know what to ask for and so Laura is stuck with her until then。I really like the art。 The color scheme is limited。 The characters have no features, hands, or feet, but still convey every single emotion。 The story is both sweet, melancholic, funny and slightly surreal。 The ending is left kind of open。 Night Cry by Borja González。Teresa runs a bookstore specializing in magic and the occult。 One night she summons Laura, an anime-loving demon。 Laura is there to grant her any wish, but Teresa doesn't know what to ask for and so Laura is stuck with her until then。I really like the art。 The color scheme is limited。 The characters have no features, hands, or feet, but still convey every single emotion。 The story is both sweet, melancholic, funny and slightly surreal。 The ending is left kind of open。 Not really sure what to think of that。4 stars 。。。more

There's a demon, and the demon loves anime (because anime is everywhere), and she is summoned by a semi-witch who owns an occult bookstore。 The semi-witch gets a wish from the demon, but doesn't know what to wish for, so the demon can't move on until she does。 Girls have been disappearing, so the semi-witch starts to investigate those disappearances。 And it's all quite charming, eventhough the book doesn't have a real ending, it sort of just runs out of pages。The art is curious because no one ha There's a demon, and the demon loves anime (because anime is everywhere), and she is summoned by a semi-witch who owns an occult bookstore。 The semi-witch gets a wish from the demon, but doesn't know what to wish for, so the demon can't move on until she does。 Girls have been disappearing, so the semi-witch starts to investigate those disappearances。 And it's all quite charming, eventhough the book doesn't have a real ending, it sort of just runs out of pages。The art is curious because no one has eyes, and it's kind of startling how quickly you accept that, and how expressive the characters still are。 I liked the art a lot。(Picked up a review copy through NetGalley) 。。。more

Thank you to NetGalley and Europe comics for this arc。 Night cry is a beautifully illustrated story of a witchy comic store owner who summons a Japan loving demon for some reason we never truly find out, the other main theme in this story is a missing girl we never really learn too much about and sadly that seemed about it。 The illustrations were amazing and the colours were gorgeous, I also really like the addition of the characters not having actual faces so you rely a lot on what they're sayi Thank you to NetGalley and Europe comics for this arc。 Night cry is a beautifully illustrated story of a witchy comic store owner who summons a Japan loving demon for some reason we never truly find out, the other main theme in this story is a missing girl we never really learn too much about and sadly that seemed about it。 The illustrations were amazing and the colours were gorgeous, I also really like the addition of the characters not having actual faces so you rely a lot on what they're saying and their body language。 However sadly, the story overall just didn't reach its full potential nor was it developed enough。 The main character isn't actually a witch and the demon has no sort of demonic powers other than a single wish grant, and we never even find out what the mc wished for。 The other theme of a missing girl is never actually investigated like the synopsis says and maybe I missed it but there was also a ghost which was a fanzine and somehow it's all connected? We, the reader, are left wondering what even happened in the story and I've seen many other reviews with the same problems and confusion at the ending。 If you hate open endings do not read this。 This graphic novel was really disappointing because of the story but I'm intrigued to read more of this authors work because of the amazing art style, if you want to appreciate this purely for aesthetics I say go for it。 2。5 stars。 。。。more

I enjoyed this much more than A Gift for a Ghost。 Admittedly, the background story about a town where girls are vanishing into thin air is a bit vague and hard to follow at times, but the real charm comes from the interactions between the three misfit protagonists。Teresa is a mopey goth woman that runs an occultist book store and practices witchcraft in secret。 Laura is an ancient pink-haired demon that's bored of mundane human affairs so she spends most of her time reading manga and watching an I enjoyed this much more than A Gift for a Ghost。 Admittedly, the background story about a town where girls are vanishing into thin air is a bit vague and hard to follow at times, but the real charm comes from the interactions between the three misfit protagonists。Teresa is a mopey goth woman that runs an occultist book store and practices witchcraft in secret。 Laura is an ancient pink-haired demon that's bored of mundane human affairs so she spends most of her time reading manga and watching anime when she's not granting wishes。 Matilda is a skateboarding punk nerd in high school that enjoys all the hobbies that Teresa and Laura enjoy so she spends her free time hanging out with the two of them。This is a unique pairing of characters that get up to some hilarious and heartwarming antics as ghostly horror mysteries occur in the background of their bizarre friendship。 More of a subtly creepy slice of life story than a true horror story, but I enjoyed it as a fan of many of the things these three girls bond over such as heavy metal, manga and dark fiction。 。。。more

I always love a good witchy book and this one is stunning and gorgeous when it comes to the artwork, but I did find the story to be a little confusing at times。 All that considered it was still really enjoyable! Even with the confusing bit, I would still recommend this!

I was intrigued by the faceless art and it worked really well with the witchy vibes。 It's impressive how expressive the characters were drawn despite having no facial expressions。 It's a fun premise of a fanzine artist who runs a bookstore accidentally summoning a pink-haired anime-loving demon who will grant her one wish。 They are in a town where girls have been going missing and there are overall vibes of suffocating small town loneliness and yearning for more through fantasies。 The ending was I was intrigued by the faceless art and it worked really well with the witchy vibes。 It's impressive how expressive the characters were drawn despite having no facial expressions。 It's a fun premise of a fanzine artist who runs a bookstore accidentally summoning a pink-haired anime-loving demon who will grant her one wish。 They are in a town where girls have been going missing and there are overall vibes of suffocating small town loneliness and yearning for more through fantasies。 The ending was really abrupt and ambiguous which kind of fit the style but also frustratingly unsatisfying。 The art itself was worth the read。 。。。more

Good characters, interesting setting and set up, moody atmospheric art。 Also liked the heads-up about Holly Golightly’s music。 Docked two stars on the story, though, as to me, it was a bit too cryptic。

It’s lovely, albeit mysterious story of a girl Teresa, with a fondness for the occult and a pink haired demon she doesn’t know what to do with。 The story is set against a blue city that has seen the disappearance of a number of people。 The simple colours of the artwork are so crisp and preserves the atmosphere of the story without being dreary。 It left me slightly confused at the end, but I don’t mind it。

Thank you to Net Galley for providing me with a free copy of this graphic novel in exchange for an honest review。Beautiful night time illustrations and art style。 The author is great at building tension and building quirky characters。I was very interested by the premise of this book but the ending is left so open it feels more like the beginning of a story rather than a complete novel。 I was left with more questions than answers which is rather frustrating, especially with a spooky book!

I love the style of the illustrations, the characters are faceless but still very expressive。 The Anime-loving demon is so cool and very sweet, definitely not a typical demon。 I was enjoying the book, though quite confused about some elements, but then it just ended quite abruptly so I was left really not knowing what happened at all。 Also, I don't think the blurb gives an accurate description of what you're getting into。Maybe it has been left open-ended for a sequel。 I love the style of the illustrations, the characters are faceless but still very expressive。 The Anime-loving demon is so cool and very sweet, definitely not a typical demon。 I was enjoying the book, though quite confused about some elements, but then it just ended quite abruptly so I was left really not knowing what happened at all。 Also, I don't think the blurb gives an accurate description of what you're getting into。Maybe it has been left open-ended for a sequel。 。。。more
